Sound Transit Edmonds Sounder Station Groundbreaking Ceremony | Events

Sound Transit is improving the Edmonds Sounder Station. A new train platform on the east side of the tracks will include a larger passenger loading area and new transit shelters. A new transit center at the north end of the station for Community Transit buses will improve the connections between buses, trains and ferries.

Other improvements include upgraded lighting, a newly paved parking lot with better drainage, new landscaping, and secure bike lockers, all resulting in a station area that is more welcoming, attractive and pedestrian-friendly for commuters and residents alike. The project is expected to be complete in spring 2011; during construction, temporary parking will be available for Sounder commuters.

Public art
Edmonds Station will feature two artworks by renowned local artist Gerard Tsutakawa. "Standing Wave" a 15-foot bronze sculpture will be moved from its temporary location in the SR 104 Mini-Park to its new home at the north end of the station site. The wave form will be echoed in artist-designed railing features on the station’s platform. The two works together reference the movement of the water on the neighboring Puget Sound.
